I want you to know, I have never listened to a podcast that has moved me ever in my life. I'm a 51 year old man who rarely cries. Buddy, let me tell you, this made me cry!!

This Podcast was the best Ive ever heard. Its an instant classic. The Hoop Dreams of Podcasts. Great work!

One of the best movies never made, yet.

I am proud of how you represented this man's life's story. I am so happy that Stoney has made his life into something he is proud of himself.

Omgoodness, 😢 this entire series was amazing. I can’t even begin to describe what this podcast has meant to listen to because of parallels between my own dad, bravo bravo

Thanks for all your time and effort putting this story together. So much history would've been lost without these series of videos. Amazing, I was on the edge of my seat.

I don't care what anybody else thinks, it takes great insight and bravery to know that you're done on this world and step off through the veil on your own terms by your own hand.

Awesome podcast. We really enjoyed the stories and so glad Stoney shared them. Looking forward to a visit to the distillery.

PODCAST GOLD RIGHT HERE! BRAVO...long may we find the power n strength to...forgive..

I relate to stoney so much

Great stuff, can’t wait to make a trip to the distillery

Awesome job! Also, anyone else thinking that Stoney sounds just like James Gregory?

My boss turned me on to your podcast this week. I have listened to all 12 episodes of ITRC in the last three days. You guys did a wonderful job producing this. On a technical level, the production value of this audio podcast is top-notch. But I agree with Sean… The true value here is Stoney’s story. This was originally interesting to me, because I love reading and studying about the Italian mafia and the cartels and their adversaries. It’s just interesting to me. But as I moved through this podcast, I realized it was a multifaceted story. The most compelling part for me, is how our young man could grow to love such a horrible man that was also a good father. My wife has a strained relationship with her dad. It’s cordial, but there is a lot of animosity in the shadows. I’m going to share this with her in hopes that it helps her with her father, and I hope it helps me with mine. I’m not far away from the distillery. I think I’ll try to get up there and shake Stoneys hand. And I don’t care how big or small they are. I just appreciate his story and his honesty. I also appreciate the way he was able to turn around his life and break the chain… Be like his father, but be better than him. Is there a way I can send an email to Stoney? I see that their business does not have an easily accessible website with contact information.

GOD bless Dixie!

Good stuff

Thank you for sharing this!

So glad you have the podcast Stoney. I would’ve never known anything about my family because I was to young.

A very good series but I wouldn’t be able to drink a toast to him

I hope one day Stoney Birt i can meet you and talk with you

Davis is where he needs to be.

Gene Cromer of Anderson SC built the engine in that Cyclone for Billy Birt. He built an engine for one of my family members as well. Gene's home & shop was just a couple miles down the road from my grandparents home. There are several videos here on KZfaq about Gene's racing and mechanical exploits.

So they were related to ‘Killer’ Jim Miller?

What am ii supposed to do know? Man i hated for this to end! Guess ill start it over in a while.

They were scared of an old man with Parkinson’s 🤣 no guards would be scared of a geriatric shakin Steven’s 🤷‍♂️

Is the distillery still open? When I searched it on Google it says temporarily closed.

Most definitely and absolutely the most in-depth, beautiful, informative, knowledgeable, suck you in from the first episode to the 12th documentary I have ever experienced in my life. And I have to thank my friend Jacob for turning me on to y'all, it is an absolute pleasure to watch your work, I watched another right before this about some Georgia Clay that was Disturbed and this is by far my favorite documentation of any series anyone could ever imagine, you deserve so much more credit and I will be sharing this for many many years to come, because you must have worked tirelessly to get such great information and great substance for these stories. No matter what happens in the future remember you are one of the best that has ever lived, and you deserve all the respect. And to the families in these videos, may you all gather peace, we cannot change the things that were done yesterday, but we can surely make tomorrow better. May your families rest at night knowing that there's nothing you should have done, and there's nothing that anyone could have done to change the outcome of the world. I know it's an incredible hard pill to swallow, losing my mother to my stepfather on Mother's Day I understand the grief, the sorrow, the anger, the aggression, the doubts, and the Curiosity of what might have been. But in the end, we will never be able to change history it writes Itself by every moment and it corrects itself every day, all we can do is make tomorrow better and love the ones that show us that we need to love. Continue with the Heart of a Lion and the humility of Jesus christ. And never bow down to evil, just stand up and take what's coming. God bless you and I pray you the most peace in the world

That's it, he fooled the women, weaker men, kids, and that 'honest' sheriff, but when that diabolical killa was remembered for comparisons of God and Jesus I hit stop. This series is a great crime story and has great production all around, but the underlying case for character rehab is appalling. Some of these mass killas are polarizing, that's for sure, I understand the family's perspective but even the narrator is sympathetic to a devil.
